Lateral Meniscus Allograft Transplantation in Combination with BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) Injection: Biologic Augmentation of the Allograft.

ABSTRACT: Meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) has proven successful in relieving joint pain and providing functional improvement in patients who have undergone subtotal or total meniscectomy. Bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) is a biological adjuvant that was shown in the literature to be effective in treating cartilage damage and muscle-tendon tissue problems. The aim of the study is the concomitant use of MAT and BMAC, which are both considered biological treatments and would be beneficial in clinical practice.
